The Titans are hoping a pair of former second-round picks from AFC South foes will blossom in Nashville. They picked up linebacker Quentin Groves and cornerback Brandon Harris on waivers in the last two days.

Groves was a second-round pick of the Jaguars in 2008, but spent just two years with them. He's since played for the Raiders, Cardinals and Browns, working under new Titans defensive coordinator Ray Horton with the latter two teams.

Harris was a second-round selection of the Texans in 2011, but did not have a start in three seasons. He had a career-best 20 tackles and four passes defensed last season but the Texans released him when trimming their roster to 53.

"He was thought of highly by some people. We had a good grade on him," Whisenhunt said. "I don't see whether there's any issue about bringing him in and getting a chance to look at him."
